Class 3 are enjoying making electrical circuits. Lots have thought about changes they can make to their circuit to make the bulb brighter…great scientific thinking! #sciencestc #lovestc #BritishScienceWeek

As part of our #TalkForWriting unit of a Balanced Discussion, Class 6 had a go at holding their own debate. We debated topics relevant to us and tried to deliver our points with a clear structure. Our ‘Speaker of the House’ added great order to the debate. @piecorbett.bsky.social #PerseveranceSTC
